-If you want parent tasks to be able to kill their children, but do not want a

-Supervised failure is useful in any situation where one task manages
-multiple fallible child tasks, and the parent task can recover
-if any child fails. On the other hand, if the _parent_ (supervisor) fails,
-then there is nothing the children can do to recover, so they should
-also fail.
